A quick look at Trailplace whilst looking for info on Wingfoot’s books surprised me as Wingfoot has his forum up and running again. I noticed that the only entries are his?? Myself, I will continue to support this Trailforums and Whiteblaze.
I wonder why Winfoot started his forums up again after letting so many people down by unceremoniously shutting his forum and journal sites down without warning.

Don’t forget http://www.backcountry.net the website for Ryan’s National Scenic Trails Mailing Lists. The original AT email list is there with the PCT, CDT, FT and others. The original AT webpage wasn’t Trailplace, btw. Kathy Bilton put up The Appalacian Trail Home Page back in 1995! http://www.fred.net/kathy/at.html

I agree that Trailforums and Whiteblaze are the place to be for forums. I just tried to log in to Trailplace to contest one of Wingfoot’s posts (the ONLY person who has been allowed to post so far!!), and it wouldn’t let me. I think it’s too bad when a “forum” doesn’t want to allow discussion, but only to dictate “correct thinking.”
